Obadiah 1:16-21

16For as ye have drunkH8354 upon my holyH6944 mountainH2022, so shall all the nationsH1471 drinkH8354 continuallyH8548; yea, they shall drinkH8354, and swallow down, and shall beH1961 as though they had not beenH1961.

17But in mount ZionH6726 there shall beH1961 those that escapeH6413, and it shall beH1961 holyH6944; and the houseH1004 of JacobH3290 shall possessH3423 their possessions. 18And the houseH1004 of JacobH3290 shall beH1961 a fireH784, and the houseH1004 of JosephH3130 a flameH3852, and the houseH1004 of EsauH6215 for stubbleH7179, and they shall burn among them, and devourH398 them; and there shall not beH1961 any remaining to the houseH1004 of EsauH6215; for Jehovah hath spokenH1696 it. 19And they of the SouthH5045 shall possessH3423 the mount of EsauH6215, and they of the lowland the PhilistinesH6430; and they shall possessH3423 the fieldH7704 of EphraimH669, and the fieldH7704 of SamariaH8111; and BenjaminH1144 shall possessH3423 GileadH1568. 20And the captives of this host of the children of IsraelH3478, that are among the CanaanitesH3669, shall possessH3423 even unto ZarephathH6886; and the captives of JerusalemH3389, that are in Sepharad, shall possessH3423 the citiesH5892 of the SouthH5045. 21And saviours shall come up on mount ZionH6726 to judgeH8199 the mount of EsauH6215; and the kingdom shall beH1961 Jehovah’s.
